Creating Vertigo Effect (New in version 5.3)
The Vertigo effect is an in-camera visual technique that combines lens adjustments with coordinated camera movement. This creates a shot where the foreground remains fixed, while the background appears to shrink or expand, depending on the camera's direction. The effect heightens the intensity of the visual experience.
